The Birth of Venus by Sandro Botticelli. Venus, the ancient Roman goddess of love, known for her beauty and inspiring love and passion in humans is the star of this masterpiece. Unusual for its time, Botticelli painted this piece on canvas, rather than wood, and used diluted egg yolk, which gives the work its transparent sheen. To capture the birth of love and the spiritual beauty as a driving force of life, this scent blends lotus flower, coconut water and melon nectar. 8 oz amber bottle reed diffuser with 10 wooden reeds and an explanatory art card. No. 3 of POET's Masterpiece Collection: home fragrance inspired by the greats.
